00:00I reckon it can take its toll, even on Simon Cowell, who would be used to it.
00:10And so, yeah, it's absolutely his choice.
00:13Even though it is disappointing for people, obviously, because they want to see Simon.
00:18But I'm sure everybody will understand, won't they?
00:21Everybody will understand.
00:22Yeah.
00:23It's understandable, though.
00:24Absolutely understandable.
00:25Yeah.
00:26I was going to say, it's like his teammate, isn't it, at the end of the day.
00:27So he's got his own reasons.
00:28And I respect it.
00:29Yeah, 100%.
00:30I think everyone's here now, just carrying on, having a good time.
00:31Do what you can.
00:32Oh, we're a bit gutted, really.
00:33Yeah.
00:34We respect his privacy, though.
00:35Yeah.
00:36It's a hard time for everyone, isn't it?
00:37Yeah, it is.
00:38We're all saddened by it, anyway.
00:39Yeah, we hope he's OK.
